    The second clearly is more cool than the first one.

      I would go with the first one but it I have no idea what those loops are on the top of it. So, I'll go with the second even though I don't like windows.

        The loops are handles. It's a steel case so it's pretty heavy.


        I'm leaving towards the first one.

                      EXACTLY what I was thinking. EXACTLY.

                      First looks just like a G5, only not as good.

                        I have seen a black version of the first one and it is all pierced on the sides and is advertised as a server case due to all the vents...wieght isn't an issue unless you are always moving the case. The second case is not so clever, the fold down plate at the bottom hides the extra ports, sound microphone and usb and maybe firewire the front panel opens up to get access to the drives which will become a pain very quickly plus the panel is plastic as are the clips on both the drop down door and the front panel. I have built a couple of pc's with a similar case to the second and the finish inside was bad! So bad in fact that to route the cables better I removed the front panel and managed without any effort to slice my finger on the metal internal panel. Don't listen the the haters on here (Mac users) and get the first case as it is different enough to be good plus the air flow is good the other is a plastic and metal case trying to look flash and not really succeeding. The cost I would guess at would mean that the second is a lot cheaper...cheap doesn't always mean good.

                          I'd say make your own case..

                            I've already made my own cases before......and I won't be again until I get better with metals.

                            I already have both cases sitting in front of me. The second one is currently in use and while it's generally fine, it's a pain if I try and reroute wires. I'm just sort of looking for something different.

                            Btw, as of last week, I am a Mac user too. Yup. I bought a G5 Powermac Dual 2.0

                              Buy the first one, so you can use it as a battling ram.
